About this map

Camp Joseph H Pendleton Naval Reservation dominates this coastal landscape just after the war, illustrating a transition from historic rancho lands to a vital military training ground. The coastline is defined by the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe Coast Highway, which skirts the Gulf of Santa Catalina and connects small outposts like Agra, Don, and Las Flores. A significant point of local history is the presence of the Las Flores Mission Ruins near the mouth of Las Flores Creek, marking the deep cultural heritage of the area prior to its mid-century development.
